Jumoke George, a seasoned Nollywood actress, has publicly begged for assistance after disclosing a slew of personal and medical issues that have left her homeless and ill.
As she talked about her current reality of living in a church, fighting illness, and looking for her lost child, George broke down in tears during a brief segment of her appearance on the TalkToB show, which was hosted by fellow actress Abiola Adebayo.
Jumoke stated, “Please pray for me, mothers in the world,” in the video that Biola posted on Instagram on Tuesday. Please offer up prayers for me. Nobody’s life has ever been damaged by me. I’m exhausted and can’t take it any longer.
“My child has gone missing, and I have nothing, even a house. My health is not good, and I am worn out. I live in a church, and I’m usually fed by the church mummy. The actress claims that Adeola, her first child, has been missing for the last four years.
Jumoke claimed that despite her grandchildren’s poor living conditions and declining health, she has been their only provider.
“As a Christian, I have tried,” she continued. For the past four years, Adeola, my firstborn child, has been missing. On May 1, Deola’s time was 41. I’m the one catering for the children.
Since January 2, I have been ill, but I have done everything in my power to be a person. I’m not sure; after completing a number of tests, I want to pay N400,000 for brain and heart exams. I have no idea where to find the funds.
I can’t sleep because I’m in pain all the time. There’s a problem with me. I no longer comprehend. That youngster has a lot of debt because of me.
Fans on social media have expressed their sympathy and concern in response to the actress’s outburst. She is well-known for her appearances in Nollywood films, particularly those in the Yoruba language.
“Honestly, in this industry, we need to be checking up on each other,” #iamtrinityguy commented on Biola’s Instagram post. No one realized that this mother had been homeless for a few years. Seeing our legends in these kinds of situations is really depressing. “Yoruba actors and actresses, you all need to do better,” #ade_dayo commented. You don’t support one another, but you can dress up to the nines for a party or movie premiere. That is detrimental to that industry. You must all support one another, not only oju aye all the time. As #thefashygram, Fash Daddy posted a remark on X.com that read, “Is this real? This woman is a very talented actress, therefore I feel terrible for her.
With the hashtag #sheyi_omotayo, CFC Omotayo tweeted, “I swear she isn’t telling lies. The church is in my street in Agbado. The way she walks sometimes makes me think it’s her size not knowing she has been sick, people stare at her in the street like she is rich, we didn’t actually know she’s going through a lot?”.
